Is anybody else a little bit fed up of the curling? #Olympics

I work full time, curling has been getting A LOT of coverage between 1800 and 2100 alongside the ice skating. I like skiing and snowboarding which is taking place during daylight.

Anyone who missed their childhood vaccination (probably in their 40s to 50s) can get MMR on the NHS for free and it seems an increasingly a good idea to do so as incidence rises. You really really don't want to get measles as an adult.

Nice to see some FIS big air snowboarders 🏂 have their gloves on strings through their jackets.

Everything which was uncool and geeky is now vibing.

Pizza for tea after a busy week.

My brain read Margherita and made me think about Margarita Pracatan from the Clive show. Here’s a link in case you’re much younger than me.

Warwickshire #Reform Councillor outed as HMO rogue landlord after 2 of his properties closed for health & safety reasons by Tamworth Council investigation.
Just the kind of person we want making decisions about short-term housing across the county. #Warwickshire

Dear #Regatta I can’t see the products I’m considering buying, because you want to tell me how many people are looking at it. This is not working for me.

Alphonso the mango coloured cat 🐈 jumped on our Minnie by her cat flap last night. She’s been in all day, looking worried.
We know it was Alphonso because he left his collar behind!

There’s an info-advert for using a smart speaker on BBC sounds to rewind a programme. The actor who plays Jolene in #TheArchers voices the ad. I got very confused about rewinding things on smart speakers / George CCTV wiping sub-plot whilst I was driving!

Amazed the people who spent days coming up with elaborate conspiracy theories about the Queen's choice of jewellery haven't cottoned onto this nod to Denmark's finest export...

Went to get the hot water bottle out, Minnie saw an opportunity.

Our New Year’s resolution was to have a picky tea on a Saturday if we’re not going out.

It’s great, the leftovers make lunches all week.

Right *rolls up sleeves * who else is ready for #TheArchers?

A lesson in checking the measurements when buying things on eBay.

The goldilocks medium sized (just right) bowl is out there somewhere…

Good evening to everyone waiting for #TheArchers to begin.

Madness! Apparently we’ve banned sharing non consensual nudes in the UK, but not the making it or providing the software?

Just seen an uncanny #Colgate advert using AI to either create or “enhance” one of the people. She was so smoothed she didn’t look human to me! #AI-In-Adverts

Minnie doesn’t want to get up this morning, after a late night mousing.

I am an aduIt, but haven’t done the age verification thing in BlueSky. So BlueSky assumes I’m under 18 years old.

I can’t access direct messaging, but I haven’t seen a p0rn b0t in months, which is great!
